"Stop being one" ?

Hi,

In this situation, two people are quarrelling

-Stop ...

-Stop being one.

I don't know what is the exact meaning of "Stop being one". I don't know whether the second agree to stop quarrelling, or she asks the other to stop first, or something else.

Could you show me the answer?

Thank you very much.

I imagine "one" substitutes for an insulting word like "idiot", "moron", "****", or whatever.
